On macOS. Works fine on Linux.
This is such an easy ask. The only thing holding it back, imo, is Apple. Can’t let the plebs bypass Xcode to develop on their Macs!
My workaround is running a container with Linux Swift installed. Of course, I’m not targeting an Apple OS so I have the flexibility.

AFAIK, they support that. https://www.swift.org/swiftly/documentation/swiftly/getting-started/ https://www.swift.org/swiftly/documentation/swiftly/getting-...: “Overview To get started with swiftly you can download it from swift.org, and extract the package. On macOS you can either run the pkg installer from the command-line like this or just run the package by double-clicking on it (not recommended): installer -pkg swift-x.y.z.pkg -target CurrentUserHomeDirectory Now run swiftly init to finish the installation: ~/usr/local/bin/swiftly init Swiftly will install itself and download the latest available Swift toolchain.”
